Sin is very serious to God, He never takes it lightly, He cannot be in the presence of sin, any amount of sin.
When we realize that!!!!
Luke 17:1-4
"3 So watch yourselves. “If your brother sins, rebuke him, and if he repents, forgive him. 4 If he sins against you seven times in a day, and seven times comes back to you and says, ‘I repent,’ forgive him.”
Romans 6:23
"For the WAGES OF SIN IS DEATH, but the free gift of God is eternal life in Christ Jesus our Lord."
1 John 3:4
"Everyone who makes a practice of sinning also practices lawlessness; sin is lawlessness."
James 1:15
"Then desire when it has conceived gives birth to sin, and sin when it is fully grown brings forth death."
Galatians 5:19-21
"Now the works of the flesh are evident: sexual immorality, impurity, sensuality, idolatry, sorcery, enmity, strife, jealousy, fits of anger, rivalries, dissensions, divisions, envy, drunkenness, orgies, and things like these. I warn you, as I warned you before, that those who do such things will not inherit the kingdom of God."
THIS IS JUST HOW SERIOUS SIN IS TO GOD!!!
Now are we ready to warn those who are headed for hell that they are in danger....after which we give them the Good news, that Christ paid the price, it didn't come cheap, and our only hope is to trust Christ, and turn from our evil ways.
Warning first, then the good news. If they will not receive it, we have our marching instructions:
Matthew 10:14
""Whoever does not receive you, nor heed your words, as you go out of that house or that city, shake the dust off your feet."
